I have said it before and I will say it again. My estimate is 57K... This would put it in the realm of the RS4 and expected price of the C63 AMG considering the new M doesnt come with 19" or Leather stand, bringing the price up to 60K. With the aggresive planned sales volume, a stripped M3 costing 60K with only Leather and 19"s is plausible if not down right likely.
